Many podencos, galgos and greyhounds (from Ireland) are adopted in Norway and Sweden without a problem. However Finland is further north. I am disturbed by the news that a podenco from Galgos del Sur went to Finland for adoption believing there was no problem for the podenco – the Finnish authorities are being very difficult about it, and the podenco is not allowed to be rehomed. The podenco is still in Finland whilst an association tries to rehome him. (Bloody bureacrats!) So, anyone wanting to know more about the problems for importing a rescued dog to Finland for adoption, here are some links.
